(On what he saw from the younger guys against the Chargers and what
he wants to see against the Raiders)
“You’ve seen some good stuff, obviously some bad stuff. I think there was
some good knock backs at times, and just getting off blocks. I think that was a
big thing that we didn't do up front in the preseason game.
I showed some still where I said I thought DL did well but was a hair late disengaging
one one Brown IV and another maybe Hoecht ... Same for Kobie and Brown III
there was good gap-and-a-half then slow (and I mean just a hair slow) that allowed extra
2-3-4 yards on a few plays.
Said also that Kier Thomas got caught on a block on the one he lost the edge...not sure
if AD was talking about that one here or not ...
But as he said see saw some good and some bad...getting the gap and a half position
is half the battle, using hands and leverage to get off block is the other half ... and
when guy like Kobie, Johnson (drawing doubles) and others doing part of it, it
means they can do the other part with some work.
